Need some help removing glue from the bed of my truck. The previous owner had the bad carpeted with a camper shell and used it for camping. I have stripped the carpet but I'm stuck with this glue! Don't know if i's carpet glue or liquid nails or what. Hard as a rock. Tried scraping it, but there's no way! This stuff is on the sides of the bed and the front of the bed. Anyone have any ideas besides a grinder?

 

That looks like liquid nail...may have to sand it off...good luck

 

Yep, looks like Liquid Nails. If it's glue mineral spirits should loosen it up, but Liquid Nails will probably have to be chiseled off.

 

That sucks! Lol

 

diesel fuel, and a metal paint scraper. but it still aint easy.

 

I think I'll find myself a plastic bed liner. Allot less work! I'm down with back problems, hopefully very short term and I'll figure out which route I am going to take. Looks like I'll wind up having to do a spray on bed liner if I get the glue off. I imagine it will take some paint off with it. I want to get the old girl looking decent again and the bed looks like crap!

 

Liquid nails web site says to heat to 140 degrees with a heat gun or blow drier or coat with petroleum jelly or mineral spirits for several hour to days.

 

sounds like a lot of trouble. but if it works, it works. its all about what you wanna do with her.
